August 6, 2026 Special Called Meeting

Hamblen County Commission special called meeting, August 6, 2026: The commission considered matters related to litigation and a judgment entered by Judge Corker. It approved a motion concerning that matter; the transcript does not clearly establish the motion’s full terms. It also approved the plaintiff’s equal-split proposal, with the Tennessee Risk Management Trust covering the county’s $15,000 share for the special master. Public comment separately raised the jail-bail lawsuit and attorney fees, including a speaker’s statement that the court had determined fees of more than $1 million were owed; the transcript does not clearly show a vote on that amount.
